I sent this coin in to NGC for grading. Since you guys consistently win the grading contests, give me your grade. In 2 weeks when my coins come back from NGC, we'll compare what you said to what NGC said. Anyone else who wishes to participate is welcome. Post your guesses in the thread
68 dcam. Pics are a bit out of focus, makes it tough to pick up on all the little details we usually get with better photos.
I'll grant ya that the pictures are poor. They were the ones from the original eBay auction. I have seen the coin in hand now and I would say that these pics capture the contrast. For that reason I never attempted to photograph it raw. I figured that NGC is going to give me really nice photos, so why bother?
Here was my post from the other thread: From the photo-verification? Those pics are usually pretty bad, they basically look like scans. Here's an example: http://www.ngccoin.com/certlookup/CertResults.aspx?CertNumber=3405042-009
ewww, those pics are yucky! and yes, I remember your comment, I just wanted this grading question to have it's own thread and get duke and baha to chime in as well as get others' opinions
